Batman Museum, Archaeological museum in Batman Province, Turkey
The Batman Museum contains three exhibition halls displaying 450 artifacts from different historical periods, including Paleolithic and Neolithic eras within a two-floor building.
The museum opened in March 2010 and houses numerous items from rescue excavations at sites affected by the construction of the Ilısu Dam in Batman and Siirt provinces.
The museum collection presents ancient gaming pieces from Başur Höyük dated to 3100-2900 BC, bronze grave gifts, and religious artifacts from the Hasankeyf archaeological site.
The facility includes a theater for documentary screenings, a specialized library focused on archaeology and art history, and an outdoor Museum Park with historical building recreations.
Four stone reliefs from the ancient Hasankeyf Old Bridge were transferred to the museum garden in 2018 before the Ilısu Dam submerged their original location.
